go to 1:08, It's not fake snow, I have no idea what it is, chicken feathers? haha. I want to use it for one of my videos one day. What is it and where can you get it?

it looks like feathers. I used feathers I bought from a craft store for one video. You can buy them in different sizes. I went small and the feathers practically float without much effort. Doesnt take much wind to move them around.

They must be under some cottonwood trees. My allergies would be going nuts!

It looks like feathers, or cottonwood stuff. YouTube sure had a hard time with that edit,.. ha ha.. to much going on for that dinky bandwidth.

i think its a special type of flare that produces a very broad floating ash. i don't know what it's called but i've heard it mentioned in several commentaries. i think underworld evolution might have mentioned it. hope this helps
thanks
